NCAA Basketball Odds

College basketball odds are used in order to separate two teams playing each other on a given day. The team that is favored is in essence giving points to the other team, yet of course this only applies in theory and in sports gambling. If Pittsburgh were playing Connecticut at home and were 4 point favorites, to determine who covered the spread all you would do is add 4 points to Connecticut’s final score and whoever comes out ahead has beaten the spread.

For example if Connecticut won 73-70, they certainly beat the NCAA basketball odds even without adding the four points they were receiving because they won the game outright. However, if Pittsburgh won 75-69, you would add 4 points to Connecticut’s final score which would put them at 73, and they would still be the loser even with the additional points you were awarded. If the game were to be decided by 4 points exactly, a “push” would be the outcome with all bettors who wagered on this game neither winning nor losing.
